SunWest getting desperate?

Does Sunwest really have openings on all of these aircraft, or is it just bait for the bag run?

Does anyone know schedule-pay-routes for the Caravans?
or
what requirements they have for Jet FO?

You know that the industry is rollin when Sunwest puts out 3 of these ads in a row! It just makes you wonder what they are willing to offer guys with around 1500tt to make a lateral jump...?

I was offered a job at sunwest a couple weeks ago, its a good place, good people, and yes worth the lateral move as it woulda been for me, however I turned them down for something better. Their pay is from what I can say above avg compared to other local places with similar equipment, and with good benefits as well. I would highly recommend sunwest to anyone!

Unless you figure you could get a call frm a major within a year or so, as I understand they have some pretty expensive, iron clad bonds that last 2 years. At least I have heard that, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Good company tho, and great people to work with. Like most other companies, it's all about the people.....

Sunwest isn't getting desperate.. they are short in a few places for crew, but they re-post every week to keep their doors open to new pilots. Pretty much looking for a fresh batch of resumes. =)
